Share of energy expenses in Indian household expenses declined for the first time in two decades
In the five years ended FY10, power tariffs grew at under 5% p.a. ; per capita income at 13.4% p.a., household expenditure at 10.6% p.a.
As tariff growth lags fuel prices and other costs, utility finances worsen
Revenue gap per unit of power grows at 33% p.a. in the 5 years to FY10. Accumulated losses at utilities estimated to have crossed Rs.2 trillion by end FY12 Had power tariffs growth in line with household expenses, the Rs,88,000 cr. loss at utilities in the 5 years to FY10 would have turned to a profit of Rs.8,000 cr.
Indian power tariffs are lower than other countries ; vary across states. Though tariffs have risen in FY11 & FY12, further hikes needed
The consumer can pay, the system must tap into it to restore sector viability
Regular cost-linked tariff growth, higher domestic coal production are key

Subsidy unpaid (CAGR : 75%) Total book loss all utilities without subsidy (CAGR : 42%) Subsidy Received (CAGR : 14%) Total book profit / (loss) - all utilities - without subsidy (CAGR : 42%)
The aggregate annual loss at utilities before subsidy has increased at 33% p.a. Though subsidies booked have grown at 30% p.a., subsidies received only at 14% p.a.
Accumulated losses estimated at over Rs.2 trillion as at end FY12, Rs.1.23 trillion as at end FY10

If power tariffs had increased in line with other household expenses over the five years ended FY 2010, i.e.at 10.6% p.a.
Total revenue gap in FY10 would have stood at 8% of tariff (actual level was 32% )
Revenues would have been higher by Rs.95,000 Cr. and utilities would have recorded a profit of about Rs.7,700 Cr. instead of a loss of Rs.87,269 Cr.

Fuel costs accounted for about 48% of the total power purchase cost growth for utilities over the last six years. Over the next five years, CRISIL Infrastructure advisory estimates that fuel costs will account for about 54% of the total power purchase cost growth for utilities. On account of the cost increases, the tariff would be required to increase at CAGR of 6% over the next 5 years.
